The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

git-tar-tree(1)

===============

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-tar-tree - Create a tar archive of the files in the named tree object
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git tar-tree' [--remote=<repo>] <tree-ish> [ <base> ]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
THIS COMMAND IS DEPRECATED. Use 'git archive' with `--format=tar`
|
|
option instead (and move the <base> argument to `--prefix=base/`).
|
|
|
|
Creates a tar archive containing the tree structure for the named tree.
|
|
When <base> is specified it is added as a leading path to the files in the
|
|
generated tar archive.
|
|
|
|
'git tar-tree' behaves differently when given a tree ID versus when given
|
|
a commit ID or tag ID. In the first case the current time is used as
|
|
modification time of each file in the archive. In the latter case the
|
|
commit time as recorded in the referenced commit object is used instead.
|
|
Additionally the commit ID is stored in a global extended pax header.
|
|
It can be extracted using 'git get-tar-commit-id'.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
<tree-ish>::
|
|
The tree or commit to produce tar archive for. If it is
|
|
the object name of a commit object.
|
|
|
|
<base>::
|
|
Leading path to the files in the resulting tar archive.
|
|
|
|
--remote=<repo>::
|
|
Instead of making a tar archive from local repository,
|
|
retrieve a tar archive from a remote repository.
|
|
|
|
CONFIGURATION
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
tar.umask::
|
|
This variable can be used to restrict the permission bits of
|
|
tar archive entries. The default is 0002, which turns off the
|
|
world write bit. The special value "user" indicates that the
|
|
archiving user's umask will be used instead. See umask(2) for
|
|
details.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
--------
|
|
git tar-tree HEAD junk | (cd /var/tmp/ && tar xf -)::
|
|
|
|
Create a tar archive that contains the contents of the
|
|
latest commit on the current branch, and extracts it in
|
|
`/var/tmp/junk` directory.
|
|
|
|
git tar-tree v1.4.0 git-1.4.0 | gzip >git-1.4.0.tar.gz::

git tar-tree v1.4.0{caret}\{tree\} git-1.4.0 | gzip >git-1.4.0.tar.gz::
|
|
|
|
Create a tarball for v1.4.0 release, but without a
|
|
global extended pax header.
|
|
|
|
git tar-tree --remote=example.com:git.git v1.4.0 >git-1.4.0.tar::
|
|
|
|
Get a tarball v1.4.0 from example.com.
